I'm a teacher of Dutch to foreign students. I teach adults. It's a special job where I get to meet the world in my classroom every day.

I'm also a mother of 2 lovely children, aged 5 and 7. I live with my parents and the children in Sijsele, near Bruges.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've mostly hosted before together with my ex-husband, and had a great time doing so!
We've also surfed before and just loved the personal touch you get from traveling this way. You really feel like you're going 'home' at the end of a busy sight-seeing day.
